Most endpoints take an API key in the xi-api-key header. Account-management endpoints such as /v1/api-keys require a browser session. Create keys on the API keys page, or use breeze login to create a device-specific CLI key.

Sending your API key

Breeze accepts the key two ways. Both are equivalent.
  • xi-api-key header
  • Authorization: Bearer <key> header
When both are present, xi-api-key takes precedence.

Key lifecycle

  • Keys have a stable key_id, prefix, and status.
  • Breeze returns the plaintext api_key only when you create or rotate a key. Store it immediately; it cannot be viewed again.
  • CLI login uses the same hash-only key model. The browser authorizes a short login flow, then the CLI exchanges a local verifier for one plaintext key response and saves it in ~/.breeze.
  • Use key_id for key management, request-log attribution, and support investigations. API-key authenticated responses include x-breeze-api-key-id.
  • Status is active, expiring, or disabled. Disabled keys return 401 AUTH_REQUIRED immediately and can be re-enabled.
  • Delete a key to remove it entirely. Use one key per environment; the last-used timestamp surfaces stale keys.

Common errors

  • 401 AUTH_REQUIRED: missing, malformed, deleted, or disabled key.
  • 403 FORBIDDEN: valid key with no access to the requested resource.
